Versuri Silverstein - Forget Your Heart

Fight these eyes, they're drawing you inside.
Signed my name in marker,
Watched the clouds as they got darker,
Felt it start to slip away.
All the schemes were made and plotted,
All the rules had been forgotten now.
I made it by the skin of my teeth again this time.
I'm waiting, still waiting to get away, and make a change,
Seasons last forever in this maze.
Forget your heart.
It's weighing you down inside as you confide your life to someone else.
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
And watch them drift out of our control.
I braced my body for the sudden impact that was more than I,
Ever thought that it would be.
And when it knocked me over, I've never felt more stiff and sober,
Now I'm trying to get up and runaway.
I'm wasting, I'm wasting my life away, I've gotta change,
I've gotta burn the book and turn the page.
Forget your heart.
It's weighing you down inside as you confide your life to someone else.
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
And watch them drift out of our control.
There's no return to what you had when you started,
Before you lost control, you will never recover.
Fight these eyes, they're drawing you inside.
Lay down and pretend you're dead, lay down before you lose control,
Lay down and pretend you're dead, lay down before you lose control.
Forget your heart.
It's weighing you down inside as you confide your life to someone else.
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
And watch them drift out of our control.
